The Exascale Comuting Project’s ExaWind suite of computational fluid dynamics codes are designed to develop predictive simulations of wind farms that contain dozens of megawatt-class turbines spread ...
In an RL-based control system, the turbine (or wind farm) controller is realized as an agent that observes the state of the ...
Researchers at the U.S. National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) have developed an AI-based tool that could significantly boost the efficiency and reduce the environmental impact of future wind ...
For the first time, engineers at MIT have developed a comprehensive, physics-based model that accurately represents the airflow around rotors even under extreme conditions. The new model enables the ...
Simulating the real world is a tremendously complex problem if you want to do it at any useful level of fidelity. Traditional techniques are holding back design teams at vehicle and aerospace ...
The proposed virtual power plant (VPP) integrates a platform-to-ship (P2S) setup to electrify anchored and bunkering ships, while also providing surplus electricity to the country’s grid. The system ...
Crossover Wind, a 135-megawatt wind farm near Wynne, is now online. The farm's 33 Vestas 4.5MW turbines, designed to produce enough electricity to power 50,000 houses, have been operating since June.
In the past, when designing the profile of rotor blades, the layout of wind turbines in a farm, or the day-to-day operation of wind turbines, engineers have relied on ad hoc adjustments added to the ...
The blades of propellers and wind turbines are designed based on aerodynamics principles that were first described mathematically more than a century ago. But engineers have long realized that these ...
